І . В . Корнейко, В.Б. Кальницька, О.В. Крайненко. Харків: ХНМУ, 2013. – 48 с. – Англ. Затверджено Вченою Радою ХНМУ. Протокол № 11 від 26.12.2013. © І.В. Корнейко © В.Б. Кальницька © О.В. Крайненко © ХНМУ 3 Foreword The language of medicine, historically established on the basis of Latin, along with national medical vocabulary contains great number of Latin loanwords. Word formation and specifically medical terminology of Latin origin is of the crucial importance for medical students. When you work in health care, it is important to know the language of medicine. Doing so is vital to become an integral part of the team and is necessary to follow through on your job responsibility. Being able to speak and understand this language enables you to do your job quickly and efficiently. The content of the guide is logically organized in three blocks (or modules). The general plan of the guide is as follows: the first four units (module 1) constitute the foundation of the course and introduce the overall approach to understanding the medical language. These units cover basic suffixes, prefixes, and combining forms, as well as terms involving the human body as a whole. Module 2 (units 5 through 16) focuses on terminology related to the structure and functions of specific body systems (digestive, respiratory systems etc) on the ground of known and new combining forms, providing definitions that help connect words to their meanings. Several learning aids are included in this workbook, such as simple anatomical diagrams and figures representing body parts or systems. Each unit ends with self-check exercises and keys to them aimed to induce you to compare, analyze and realize your knowledge by the fulfillment of these tasks. Chapters 17 through 20 deal with specialized areas of medicine – cancer medicine, medical imaging, pharmacology and microbiology. At the end of the book you will find the dictionary of combining forms and their meanings. Every professional working in the health care industry – from first-year medical students to physicians – requires knowledge of the language of the medical terminology. Using the features of this guide you will be able to quickly and effectively perform your job and communicate with other health care professionals. How to work with the guide The book begins with two charts demonstrating the course content for the students of medicine and dentistry. Choose your chart. It shows all the topics studied and tests you are to pass. It also contains spaces for your notes. Units 1 – 4 cover general rules of term analysis. They open with explanation of the rules followed by the list of prefixes, suffices, combining forms. Each unit contains exercises which will help you to get the experience of understanding and building new medical words. Working with these units you will build a medical language vocabulary. Units 5 – 16 discuss the terminology of the body systems. Units 17-20 concentrate on special areas of medicine. They continue the general format of the previous units. Each unit contains a list of combining forms and their meaning. The exercises with keys will give you the opportunity to master and review the material of the unit. They will help you to prepare for the tests which are written after mastering the material of each unit. 4 Course content (medicine) Module Subject Unit Notes 1.

Twenty regular tests are done after each unit. A regular test contains 10 tasks ro build a medical word and 10 tasks to analyze a medical word. The students are given 20 minutes to right this test. The works are assesed by the percent of correct answers: 90-100% - 5; 75-89% – 4, 60-74% – 3; >60 – 2. A combined test contains 20 tasks to analyze a medical word and 20 tasks tp build a medical word. They are assessed in the similar way: 90-100% - 5; 75-89% – 4, 60-74% – 3; >60 – 2. A module test has three levels. Level one measures understanding. This is a multiple choice test containing 20 tasks to be done in 10 minutes. The works are assesed by the percent of correct answers: 20 answers (100% ) – 59 points, 19 answers (97%) - 57 points, 18 answers (93%) - 55 points, 17 answers (90%) - 53 points, 16 answers (87%) - 51 points, 15 answers (83%) – 50 points. The student who has made zero, one, or two mistakes can go to level two. At level two the students are to do 10 tasks to build a medical word and 10 tasks to analyze a medical word. The works are assesed by the percent of correct answers: 20 answers (100% ) – 71 points, 19 answers (97%) - 69 points, 18 answers (93%) - 67 points, 17 answers (90%) - 65 points, 16 answers (87%) - 63 points, 15 answers (83%) – 61 points.

  • Lung, Epithelium – Degeneration
    Lung, Epithelium – Degeneration Figure Legend: Figure 1 Lung, Epithelium, Bronchiole - Degeneration in a male B6C3F1/N mouse from a subchronic study. The epithelial cells in this bronchiole are sloughing into the lumen, but there is little inflammation. Figure 2 Lung, Epithelium, Bronchiole - Degeneration in a male B6C3F1/N mouse from a subchronic study (higher magnification of Figure 1). The epithelial cells are vacuolated and sloughing and have lost their cilia, but there is little necrotic debris or inflammation. Figure 3 Lung, Epithelium, Bronchiole - Degeneration in a male B6C3F1/N mouse from a subchronic study. The epithelial cells are sloughing into the lumen, and there are occasional pyknotic nuclei, but there is little necrotic debris or inflammation. Figure 4 Lung, Epithelium, Bronchiole - Degeneration in a male 1 Lung, Epithelium – Degeneration B6C3F1/N mouse from a subchronic study (higher magnification of Figure 3). The epithelial cells are vacuolated and sloughing, but there is little necrotic debris or inflammation. Comment: Degeneration (Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4) and necrosis are considered to be parts of the continuum of cell damage, with degeneration representing reversible cell damage and necrosis representing irreversible cell damage. The light microscopic hallmarks of reversible cell damage (degeneration) include cellular swelling, cytoplasmic vacuolation, perinuclear clear spaces, formation of cytoplasmic blebs, loss of normal apical blebs from Clara cells, and loss of cilia. In some cases, detachment of viable cells from the epithelial surface and nuclear condensation (pyknosis) and cellular shrinkage of scattered cells within the epithelium, suggestive of imminent death of individual cells, may be interpreted as epithelial degeneration because it may be consistent with reversible damage to an epithelial surface and evidence of outright necrosis may be lacking.

  • Fatal Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection in Immunocompetent Adult: a Case Report
    MOJ Clinical & Medical Case Reports Case Report Open Access Fatal respiratory syncytial virus infection in immunocompetent adult: A case report Abstract Volume 9 Issue 6 - 2019 Background: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most common pathogen that causes 1 2 acute lower respiratory tract infection in infants and young children. However, very rarely, Mohamed Rida Tagajdid, Ahmed Guertite, RSV can induce acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in immunocompetent adults. Safae Elkochri,1 Hicham Elannaz,1 Rachid Unluckily, optimal management has not been well-known for this eventually fatal condition. Abi,1 Hicham Bekkali,2 Idriss Lahlou Amine1 We report a case of fatal RSV-induced ARDS occurring in a previously healthy man. 1Department of Virology, Mohammed V Military Teaching Hospital, Morocco Observation: A 42-year-old male was admitted to the Emergency Department with cough, 2Intensive Care Unit, Mohammed V Military Teaching Hospital, dyspnea and fever. His previous clinical history showed no relevant disease. Pulmonary Morocco radiology revealed diffuse ground-glass opacities in both lung fields. Lab analysis revealed high inflammation markers, witness of infection. After 2 days, the patient developed ARDS, Correspondence: Mohamed Rida Tagajdid, Mohammed V we transferred it in the Intensive Care Unit. Microbiological investigation reported positivity Military Teaching Hospital, Morocco, Tel 00 212 6 42 90 71 77, of RSV PCR. Furthermore, the patient had a negative serology for HIV and normal T CD4+ Email lymphocyte counts. Despite treatment with Ribavirin and respiratory support, the patient died of pulmonary embolism. Received: November 13, 2019 | Published: November 27, 2019 Conclusion: Thus, RSV infection should be considered a possible though rare cause of ARDS in adulthood in particular when computed tomography (CT) chest find diffuse ground-glass opacities.
